Jay z friend or foe lyrics

Album: Reasonable Doubt

I'm done talking
Ran up in the spot gun smoking
Shot it in the air, one woke him
Sun-soaking, sweating in his bed like Dunlo
Thinking to himself what done provoked him
His thoughts is racing like a vulcan
I swear I saw a lightbulb when
He finally figured out who was the culprit
I said yeah, remember me from Friend or Foe when
I told you don't ever ever come around here no more
Time to pay now, you try to rise, I wave the gun - lay down
This time you're really going to listen to Jay now
I try to talk sensibly, hoping that eventually you realize
I had this locked and it just wasn't meant to be
Plus I had sympathy when we all wore rams with your keys
And it wasn't afterthought that maybe you'll try to revenge me
But I was like "Nah", Chromes had to know he was wrong
And if you caught me on the foul now you would sing me the same song
Plus you promised
And that's really no fun
Yeah I find you in this Motel 6 with all these guns
And all your goons, lined up in adjoining rooms
Like some wild cowboys coming to get me at high noon
But my mind's like a flower in bloom
*** my eyes just scower the room
I'm alert, plus I paid the clerk I got it laid out
You think you the first nigga I played out, in a 2 hotel town?
Come on now, I peep your Lexus at you
Left the exit got some niggas on that side of the town
Money well invested, rudely interrupted
Jamaican accents ***
A gun in your face and that's all you can come up with?
I'm done talking, back up and clap them, one in the abdomen
Do me a favor dude, get 2 ice cubes I pass them
Take that ice up, for the nicest MC
And please yo, tell BIG, he's unbelievable
Friend or foe BIOTCH!

Check one check two, you know what to do
Primo, cold crush when I give it to you
Friend or foe yo, state your biz
Ya tend to dough, ah, there it is
Me, I run the show, oh, and these kids
Don't like nobody coming around here fucking wit they doe for shit
You enterprising though
And I like it
But fuck with the big dogs though, I gotta bite ya
Look, its out of my hands
And you getting money round here, its not in the plans
So hop yo ass out of that van, head back to Kansas
I'm sending niggas back up in campuses
Chance is slimmer than that chick in Calvin Klein pants
Let me guess, they said it was money round here
And the rest is me stopping you from getting it, correct?
Sorry to hear that, my guess is you got work at the hotel
I'll take care of that, you'll see, now please
Give me the room key
You're twitching, don't do that, you making me nervous
My crew, well, they do pack, them niggas is murderous
So would ya, please put your hand back in sight
They don't like to see me nervous you can understand that, right?
You draw, better be Picasso, y'know the best
'Cause if this is not so, ah, god bless
You leave me no choice, I leave you no voice
Believe me son I hate to do it just as bad as you hate to see it done
Now calm your boys
'Cause I'm finding it a little hard to concentrate with all the noise
Get the point, I'll let ya go
Before ya leave, I guess I ought to let you know, I need those keys
And promise you never, no matter the weather
Evaevaevaevaevaevaevaevaeva come around here no mo'

I'm done talking
Ran up in the spot gun smoking
Shot it in the air, one woke him
Sun-soaking, sweating in his bed like Dunlo

Thinking to himself what done provoked him
His thoughts is racing like a Vulcan
I swear, I saw a light bulb when
He finally realized who was the culprit

I said, "Yeah, remember me from friend or foe when
I told you don't ever, ever come around here no more
Time to pay now, you try to rise, I wave the gun, lay down
This time you're really going to listen to Jay now"

I try to talk sensibly, hoping that eventually you realize
I had this locked and it just wasn't meant to be
Plus I had sympathy and we all wore rams with your keys
And it wasn't afterthought that maybe you'll try to revenge me

But I was like "Nah", Chromes had to know he was wrong
And if you caught me on the foul now you sing me the same song
Plus you promised and that's really no fun
Yeah, I find you in this Motel 6 with all these guns

And all your goons, lined up in adjoining rooms
Like some wild cowboys coming to get me at high noon
But my mind's like a flower in bloom
Peep up, my eyes just scour the room

I'm alert, plus I paid the clerk, I got it laid out
You think you the first nigga I played out in a 2 hotel town?
Come on now, I peep your Lexus at you
Left the exit, got some niggas on that side of the town

Money well invested, rudely interrupted
Jamaican accents
A gun in your face and that's all you can come up with?
I'm done talking, back up and clap them, one in the abdomen

Do me a favor dude, get 2 ice cubes, I pass them
Take that ice up, for the nicest MC
And please yo, tell BIG, he's unbelievable
Friend or foe, Biotch
